  • (reggae music)

  • - When people see Lee Perry,

  • they're feeling this guy's just soul pouring out.

  • He hits on something that's just magical.

  • - Lee Scratch Perry's a magician,

  • he's a madman, he's a music maker, he's one of a kind,

  • there's never gonna be one like him again.

  • When I work with Lee Scratch Perry

  • as his bandleader,

  • he was like an idol of mine.

  • I never thought I would meet the guy.

  • I didn't even know if he was alive.

  • Scratch is kind of like Yoda, but he's also like a child

  • inside an 80-year-old man's body.

  • - Yeaaah.

  • Woo ooh, woo ooh, woo ooh.

  • - [EMCH] In many ways, I feel like he's underappreciated.

  • He's a guy who has touched so many people,

  • - Bob Marley, Paul McCartney, The Clash, The Beastie Boys.

  • Keith Richards once said that Lee Scratch Perry

  • was the Salvador Dali of music.

  • - Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

  • - [EMCH] It's amazing to see this guy who's 80-years-old,

  • who's just like this creative force of nature.

  • He's never without a computer.

  • Now, he's even said sometimes the computer is part of him.

  • He's constantly reacting to what's around him

  • and processing it and it comes back out

  • in one way or another.

  • (laughs)

  • - He always talks about people

  • being either scientists or magicians.

  • Everything I'm doing with the computers

  • and twisting the knobs, he's like, "you're a scientist."

  • (electronic reggae music)

  • This is actually how I wrote the bass line to this track.

  • Around me is all this gear from decades past,

  • not unlike what Scratch was using back in Jamaica.

  • In the same way Scratch used the mixing board

  • as an instrument to shape a new form of music,

  • now we're using the computer to shape

  • a new form of musical performance, so it allows

  • us to take all this on tour and take it on stage.

  • - [Voiceover] We're about to give you

  • the vibes of Mr. Lee Scratch Perry.

  • How does everyone feel about that?

  • Does that sound all right?

  • (applause)

  • (swelling music)

  • You guys ready?

  • (slow reggae music)

  • - [EMCH] Often times, people see me on stage

  • and they think I'm just DJing,

  • but in fact, what I'm doing is

  • very demanding on the computer.

  • We're creating kind of a new blueprint for live performance,

  • because we're using a combination of live instruments,

  • elements of the music in the computer,

  • and of course, elements of improvisation live.

  • Every night we perform it, it's different.

  • It's living art.

  • The science, the nature, and the spirituality

  • all coming together in one.

  • That's what anyone can learn from Lee Scratch Perry,

  • whether they like his music or not,

  • is to look at the world like a child and never stop

  • experimenting and pushing your creativity forward.
